Perspective: at $170/t, an Alberta family of four would see rebate values of roughly $3,200 per year ($800 per quarter), factoring in GHG reduction estimates from @enviroeconomics.

Many will ignore the existence of rebates, but they're going to be large. Don't forget them.
There's also an opportunity for AB govt to bring CTax back to Alberta as part of its approach to balancing its books. At $170/t, AB could have a BC-style low-income rebate and use the rest towards shrinking its deficit. Roughly $4.5 billion by 2030 (yes, reflects lower GHGs)
Nice! My quick-and-dirty estimate was pretty bang on! Here's the relevant table from the government report on rebates by province
